Meal prep taking for-e-ver? You’re not alone.
But if just thinking about summer snacks and meals makes you want to pull your hair out (or hide in the pantry with the cookies), this episode is your survival guide.
Summer brings the chaos — camps, road trips, spontaneous playdates, and snack-hungry kids on repeat. If figuring out food feels overwhelming, or like it’s stealing the joy right out of your summer, this episode will help you simplify without resorting to boring, restrictive routines or spending hours in the kitchen.
In today’s episode, Brittany shares her favorite realistic hacks for meal and snack planning — ones that actually fit your real-life schedule.
You’ll learn how to stay nourished on the go, reduce decision fatigue, and even get your family on board (read: fewer complaints at dinnertime 🙌).
Say goodbye to the summer food scramble and hello to practical ideas that save your sanity.
A few things you can expect to hear in this episode include…
